I looked this up in the manual and I can't find an automatic storage maximum.--
I'm trying to do a LOT inside a procedure with IFS files, and I defined my buffers pretty big.
One buffer to read in from the IFS. I first defined it with a little less than the 16 meg max, trying to get it in one chunk.
But I also had another holding area defined with (a little less than) 16 meg.
But the compile "blew up", meaning it abended with the above error, and produced a service dump, a job log printout, and a QDSPJOB printout. The compile listing has a message at the bottom, An error occurred during translation.
But I brought down my length for the two above fields to 160,000.
The job log message is MCH4216, and here is the message. My automatic storage for the procedure does not add up to that high with the lesser value, so what am I missing?

This one is a good encapsulation of the rest of them, I think...
"..It is the continuing evolution and betterment provided by IBM that keeps the language relevant and useful..."
...without deprecating very much, either...
You can please some of the people all of the time, and you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time!
